A wearable device and a method for performing one or more actions using a wearable device are disclosed. The wearable device includes a bezel ring, a watch dial a flexible ring, and a plurality of springs. The bezel ring includes a plurality of holes along a circumference of the bezel ring for placement of a plurality of magnets. The watch dial includes an outer periphery with another plurality of holes at a uniform distance. The watch dial also includes an inner periphery to house inertial sensors at a predetermined position. The flexible ring placed in between an inner surface of the bezel ring and the watch dial. A plurality of springs are placed within the other plurality of holes of the outer periphery of the watch dial. The bezel ring is configured to support at least one of tilting, shifting and rotation over the watch dial.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
2. The wearable device claim 1, wherein the bezel ring surrounds the inner periphery of the watch dial with a predetermined gap between the bezel ring and the inner periphery of the watch dial to enable tilting and shifting of the bezel ring over the watch dial.
3. The wearable device claim 1, wherein the bezel ring is mounted over the outer periphery of the watch dial with a predetermined gap between the bezel ring and the watch dial.
4. The wearable device of claim 1, wherein the flexible ring placed in between the bezel ring and the inner periphery of the watch dial is configured to enable the bezel ring to shift over the watch dial.
5. The wearable device of claim 1, wherein the inertial sensors placed on the inner periphery of the watch dial and are configured to detect a change in a magnetic field based on a movement of the plurality of magnets in the bezel ring during at least one of tilting and shifting of the bezel ring over the watch dial.
6. The wearable device of claim 5, wherein the inertial sensors are magnetometers.
7. The wearable device of claim 1, wherein the inertial sensors are placed along the inner periphery of the watch dial and are configured to detect a change in a capacitance based on a movement of the bezel ring during at least one of tilting and shifting of the bezel ring over the watch dial.
